Whereas active participation in sports is universally accepted to successfully extend human life; the establishment of this annual “Marathon Project” for the marginalized Ethiopian, other African & African-American communities in/around LA, will not only accomplish in improving the physical, mental and emotional health/wellness of these targeted communities; but will also demonstrate what productive residents are able to achieve by fighting obesity, diabetes and other diseases, thereby enhancing the overall quality of life in Los Angeles.
